Spring is the prime season to do some cleaning. From storing your winter gear to cleaning up your car. This is what you need to do to get your car nice and clean to face the warmer weather ahead.

It’s Time for Some Spring Cleaning!

The sun is out, the flowers are blooming, and the days are longer. Spring cleaning time has arrived! Cleaning up your closets and sprucing up your living room aren’t the only tasks you can do to take advantage of these warmer days. For instance, you can spring clean your car as well. Cleaning your vehicle can help you extend its longevity, or increase its trade-in value if you plan on selling it. Here are some super simple things you can do to spring clean your car in Fayetteville.

Maintain Its Systems

Before you start working on your car’s looks, you need to work on the systems that keep it going. For what good is a car if it can’t move? You can make your car a little bit more eco-friendly by keeping up with its maintenance and tune-ups. Start by checking the tires and braking system. The slippery winter roads can take a seriously significant toll on them. Make sure that the tires have the right air pressure, and if the tread is worn out, consider replacing them. As for your tires, check the brake fluid levels and refill them if necessary. Do the same for all other necessary car fluids. Be sure to check that the battery has enough power. Verify that your air conditioning system is in excellent working form. Maybe even change the air filter, its pollen season, and you don’t want any allergies flaring up. Lastly, get a synthetic oil change to keep your engine lubricated. There are many great perks to an AMSOIL Synthetic Oil change such as longer oil change intervals (if you use their XL 0W-20 Synthetic Motor Oil), increased engine performance, and even saving some money. So head to AMSOIL’s online store or call Huff Oil Group at (910) 988-9328 to place your order.

Wash the Outside

Is your car clean enough? You should give it a thorough wash and special attention to the cracks, under the edges, and the wheels to remove any winter grime stuck in there. When you’re washing your car, be sure to do it away from direct sunlight and use a mild soap to do the washing. If you’re going to wax your car, which you should to keep it shiny, make sure your wax is compatible with your vehicle’s paint.

Take Care of the Inside

Cleaning the inside of your car is pretty easy, some vacuuming, dusting, and using a wet rag will do. You should use a brush to wipe down your seats before your vacuum them to remove dust, dry leaves, food crumbs, and whatever other debris you can find there. If you own leather seats, wipe them down with a damp cloth and protect them with a leather protector. Be sure to vacuum your mats and under them too. For those hard to reach nooks and crannies, compressed air can be your greatest ally. Don’t forget your dashboard. Use a wet rag to clean it and a dry cloth to dry it afterward. Does your pet travel with you often? Here’s what you can do to pet-proof your car. Keep your car smelling fresh as spring with an air freshener when you’re done the cleaning.

Replace the Wipers

Don’t let the April showers catch you with old windshield wipers! Cracked and old wipers won’t keep your windows clean and you safe on the road. You need to replace your wipers if they’re smearing your window, making annoying noises, or cracking. New wiper blades will help you keep your car cleaner for a longer time.

Take Out the Trash

If you’re like many of us, you can probably find empty coffee cups, water bottles, and food wrappers lying around in your car. Maybe they were left behind while you hid from the cold inside your warm vehicle, perhaps you just forgot about them. It’s time to clean them out of your car. While you remove all the trash, take out any extra weight you don’t need. Remove your gym bag and random stuff you’re carrying around. A lighter car saves more fuel.
